Lukaku with the first goal of the game after just 19 minutes
,I'm out already whether or not this end up Over 2.5 goals or not, and Azerbaijan are now down to 10 men, this might be a long game for Azerbaijan!

Belgium line up against Azerbaijan is up, and it's almost the strongest line up they've could have, and to make matters worse Lukaku is in the starting line up and except he scores he might be on the pitch for 90 minutes, all I can hope his the old wasteful Lukaku because his got himself a squad full of chances creators like Jeremy Doku, Leandro Trossard, and Johan Bakayoko, with these players there is absolutely no way Belgium will score 3 goals without Lukaku getting a couple for himself!

I actually chose Wales/Croatia yes because I knew my opponent would go yes, but Armenia nicking the point no shock (mind you, it was an own goal so Armenia scored all the goals haha).
Yes it was so stupid to concede own goal like that in last moments of the match, and that ruined my chances to win this round.Wales team is nothing special and I dont know how they defeated Croatia last month.
I dont understand cricket live results in flashcore but I think Australia is winning final match against India.

Djoko will win, trust me. Sinner knows

but it should be more interesting than last night match
I don't think this match up would be more interesting than that of last night because I watch every single second of it, I often love seen Alcaraz play because he brings so much to the court, energy and entertainment for viewership, you get to see all aspects there is to tennis, from drop shots, to volleys, to baseline shots, spin shot and slices of different level, and to the rallies he engages in are always intriguing to watch too, yesterday score line might have made it seem like a one sided game, it really wasn't if you watch the game very closely. I prefer these kinds of tennis to those of heavy service games and more than 80-90% of the game being under 5-10 rally, just a majorly unreturned services, and aces, I'll probably just fall asleep before halfway in to the first set.
I'm rooting for Sinner btw, I believe he deserves it

agree here
Sinner knows that he can't let any minute of lower performance, because Djokovic will fight till last breath
and Sinner will probably give up if everything is not as he likes
it looks small, but it is a big difference, and probably a decider here, Sinner is an excellent player, but needs a lot of experience to fight of bad moments
but it should be more interesting than last night match

Yes, it feels extra bad to lose a round, extra because you only score 1 or even zero points. I win this round with 3, maybe 4 points, but it's not enough when others get 6 or 7 points. 1 goal difference is ok, it's the issue of not having points. I feel like division 3 always gets loads of points because they are less afraid to make bold picks? No relegation, no worry.
The Poland-Czech draw really saved my ass this time, but again I have only one correct answer so far. Even if I manage to win a round (like I did against slaman29), it's because my opponent gets one or two answers right. I really have to do something to get more answers right because with this I'd probably have problems even in Division 3.

Well, at least Croatia will probably directly qualify for the Euros.
Alcaraz - Đoković starting soon, I feel whoever goes to the final is losing against Sinner tomorrow.

Sinner is in the form of his life but if Djokovic advances tonight then Sinner party is over ! No way Djokovic is losing to him back to back within few days.
I actually have a very small bet on Sinner taking the title from before tournament even began. He was the player in form but I decided that picking him to progress from group will be enough of differential in BSFL and that is better for me to take Djoković for winner here since most of other players will do it like that.
Man, his mental strength/stability is unreal. Do you know these moments when you ask yourself whether Djokovic does some things in the game on purpose that make him look as if he is getting weaker or losing concentration? I know that I've mentioned it before in regards to losing a set as if he hardly ever played tennis before and then wins 6-2, 6-2 afterwards. But yesterday in the game there was also one situation where he was serving and 15:40 down and then I thought this is probably the moment, as Alcaraz realizes, that he got Djokovic beat for a break. And then Djokovic strikes back with ease, takes that chance away as if nothing was on the line and every time I think whoever the opponent is, it must feel devastating. It's those moments when there is some hope germinating on part of his opponents and Djokovic then brutally destroys this moment.
This is definitely one of the biggest strength any play in sport can have, specifically in individual sports. It makes the opponent tired when they know that Djokovic will never fall apart and give away easy points. Tennis is physically exhausting like hell and on top of that Djokovic makes it mentally exhausting because there is no moment for relaxation against him.

Lukaku, I was so sure would be the same pick, didn't expect slackovic to go all-in on Belgium... I'm a big Azero betting guy, but not against Belgium!
Alcaraz, man.

Well... Congrats to figuring out how I'll answer on the Croatia/Wales question. Honestly, I was gonna answer "No" on that question but not because I thought Wales won't win both games. I thought (and I still think) that Croatia could fuck up their chances on finishing up as the second team because I know how our national team likes to complicate thing for themself in qualifications.

I would agree on that but Djokovic game have dropped quite a lot from what it was 2-3 months ago, and with that massive crowd behind Jannik Sinner he might defeat Djokovic even at his prime.
That said, I would have preferred a Jannik Sinner vs Carlos Alcaraz for the finals, but it just have to be another day, with Djokovic already serving for the match with 2 break advantage.

...and with that massive crowd behind Jannik Sinner he might defeat Djokovic
This is what Djokovic often brings up as the thing that motivates him the most when he plays against is toughest contenders. I believe him, Djokovic is the kind of guy who turns negative sentiment into positive energy for him. Ronaldo is the same in football. It probably is something that sets all the world stars apart from others unless you are the one who is loved by everyone, like Federer, which can also give invaluable positive energy.
But I am not sure about Sinner. He is playing stunning tennis, but beating Alcaraz just like that also means that Djokovic isn't that bad in shape.
In my opinion the score line and result doesn't justify our the game really went, Alcaraz played quite well and the game should haven't this way if you considered the points won and whatnot, and meanwhile Alcaraz haven't played this well for a while with the injury he's supposedly struggled with in the last few weeks.
Djokovic is a player that barely let any form of opportunity passes him by, so we can expect him to give it whatever it takes to get through this and claim the title, but just that in my opinion, Jannik Sinner is the better player who deserves it the most of both players.

GG for me this round im gonna lose, i put Zverev in the alst one only because he beat Alcaraz and think he can gonna through after that, but ended up going out for H2H and games won absolut shit.
And plus Wales..... come on man you only need to wina gainst a weak armenia....

Thanks @Slissy and yes, this was quite a miserable round for you in terms of results, but let me tell you that I do prefer the BSFL thrill to last until Sunday.

This could of course be a valid point and it depends on what the coach thinks about Lukaku. It could still be an option to let him play and let him score his goal or give him 60 minutes to keep him moving with the team. But at the same time a break could also make sense. I guess this is the biggest threat for those who went with Lukaku scoring a goal. Either a break or a very short play time for him.
Lukaku question is the only thing that separates me from winning this round so I really hope he will play and score at least a goal while Belgium demolishes Azerbaijan with 3 goals. I know it's a stretch but a man can dream

If I could change my answers rn, I’d still go with Lukaku not to score and Over 2.5 goals, simply because Belgium have already secured their place, and the coach explore other attacking options, while most of them would definitely try to make an impression to the coach, Lukaku aside from being very wasteful I don’t expect him to heavily involved in the match, and I don’t think he’s potential minimal contribution should deter Belgium from scoring up to 3 goals against Azerbaijan.

Why it made the most sense to me is that Lukaku is playing on four fronts current and at least 2 match every week, Azerbaijan sure would be like him having a training session according to his resumè, I mean no disrespect, because he’s the Haaland for AS Roma right now so, the coaches would over work him either, but I guess we’ll see though.
—————————————
The tennis final before final is about to get underway between Alcaraz and Djokovic, this fixture have never been a boring one, and I don’t expect this to be one.

I said it!!!!
And that's how Argentina, Wales, and the Czech Republic all ended my unbeaten streak against a winless team. Taking points from the top teams and giving them to the midtable teams sounds like a Chelsea thing to me.
The worse of all is Sweden selling off their match to ruined my heavy payout ticket. Needed only 1 goal from those motherfukers. Last international break was Croatia.

It make sense at some point but I really cant picture him out of the starting lineup especially when he is the top scorer for euro currently. He probably will play for like 60-70 minutes depending on how many goals that they have scored but atleast if Azerbaijan could hold him up to not score then that would do however Im sure Belgium would love to end the qualifications as group stage winner so there is probably some tiny chance that Lukaku would play for full 90 minutes but I guess I'll settle with under 2.5 goals for Belgium if possible to settle this round with a draw against @notblox1
